Neem oil

Neem (scientific name: Azadirachta Indica A.Juss.) is a plant in the genus Azadirachta of the Meliaceae family. It typically reaches a height of 12-20 meters, occasionally 25 meters, and in rare cases 35-40 meters. The tree usually has few branches with wide branching angles, a broad, rounded crown, and a canopy spread of generally 15-20 meters. It features once-pinnate compound leaves, with the compound leaf length ranging from 20-30 centimeters, sometimes up to 40 centimeters; the number of leaflet pairs is few, often just two pairs. The inflorescence is a panicle, 20-25 centimeters long, with 2-3 levels of branching; each inflorescence bears 100-200 flower buds. The fruit is a drupe with a smooth surface; young fruits resemble olives in shape, while mature fruits are nearly short-elliptical to nearly oblong.
